Abstract
Models of protein structures enable molecular understanding of biological processes. Current protein structure prediction tools lie at the interface of biology, chemistry and computer science. Millions of protein structure models have been generated in a very short space of time through a revolution in protein structure prediction driven by deep learning, led by AlphaFold. This has provided a wealth of new structural information. Interpreting these predictions is critical to determining where and when this information is useful. But proteins are not static nor do they act alone, and structures of proteins interacting with other proteins and other biomolecules are critical to a complete understanding of their biological function at the molecular level. This review focuses on the application of state-of-the-art protein structure prediction to these advanced applications. We also suggest a set of guidelines for reporting AlphaFold predictions.
